Middleton Meltdown

A big well done to the boys who played with spirit up at MC and, although defeat hurt, there were no tears or recriminations. It's fair to say MC deserved their win and showed they were strong in every position (and the bench). Their movement and passing is something we can aspire to and we look forward too seeing them at The Closes later this season.

No excuses but it's worth noting we were 3 boys down, Will was three-quarters fit and James E was carrying a groin strain. Also, the two own goals were harsh and the ball never seemed to roll our way. Okay then, some excuses... but 4 - 0 could have been a lot worse but for the splendid antics of the returning Ollie in goal, and the best player on the pitch by a mile, Rory.

Player of the Week: Rory the Rock

Remember: There's no such thing as a 50/50 ball. It's yours!
